Nos formateurs

Dr Ana Lorena Gómez

Le Dr Ana Lorena Gómez a pratiqué la dentisterie générale pendant 27 ans. Elle a pratiqué exclusivement l'orthodontie pendant 17 ans, mais a intégré le système Myobrace^® dans le traitement régulier de ses patients en 2009. Cela a entraîné une augmentation du nombre de patients traités et de meilleurs résultats en matière de stabilité des cas et d'harmonie du visage. Le Dr Gómez partage son expérience sur la façon dont elle a changé la façon de faire les diagnostics initiaux, en incorporant des évaluations myofonctionnelles et, ce faisant, elle a pu traiter le problème de la mauvaise fonction plus tôt et dans le cadre d'un traitement orthodontique préventif intégral, changeant ainsi la façon dont les soins étaient prodigués.
